The college provides good infrastructure and facilities for students.
Placements: Up to 80% of the students from our senior batch were placed in the year 2024. Top recruiting companies are Tech Mahindra and TCS (Tata Consultancy Services). The highest package was 23 lakhs in the year 2019, and the lowest was 6.3 lakhs per annum.
Infrastructure: The hostel environment is so good. You can look out for a clear and clean view from the courtyard outside the room. It looks like a green field. The Wi-Fi system is moderate to average. Classrooms and labs also have good infrastructure. Mess food is also good, with no remnants from previous days. For sports and games, you can choose the indoor stadium as the best place, even if it is raining or during a thunderstorm, because it has good facilities for games like volleyball, table tennis, badminton, and kabaddi.
Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified pass-outs, professors from IITs and NITs. They will teach you in such a manner that if you are fully focused in class, you just need a quick review before semester exams. However, they teach very fast, which becomes quite difficult for newly learning batches; it was for me as well. In addition to these courses, additional courses are also required to become industry-ready, which you have to practice on your own, such as VLSI for ECE students. The semester exams were the easiest ones; the minimum SGPA in the first semester was 6, and the max went up to 9.7 SGPA.
Other: For the fest, I want to say that there are only 2-3 months. During this occasion, you can meet the fests like Kurukshetra (the gaming event), which goes on for 10 days. The biggest fest is the SANKALP, where various clubs perform their competitions and provide prize money. Mr. and Ms. Sankalp are also chosen from the first-year batch.

NIST University - The place for leaders.
Placements: Placements are average, and the rate is 70%. The highest package is 23 LPA. The average package is 5.5 LPA. There are companies like Infosys, TCS, HP, Accenture, Capgemini, and HCL recruiters here. There are no internships offered here from companies but some of the teachers present here can get the best internships.
Infrastructure: College infrastructure is fabulous. Hostel facilities are also good but there is a little compromise in food. Wi-Fi facility and AC rooms are available. We can see average rooms and also moderate food. Best in quantity but lacks in quality. Good for localities.
Faculty: A better exam is conducted at NIST University. The exam mode is very strict, no one can cheat. For those who will cheat, there is strict action taken for them. The exam pattern has been improved as earlier, and can get a moderate paper. Pass percentage is 90%. Highly qualified teachers with vast knowledge are present here.
Other: I have enrolled here for computer science engineering (AI&ML) because in this era of artificial intelligence, it stands unique from all. We have to choose a field that will make me stand out from all in this journey.

I am dissatisfied with the faculty members.
Placements: 60% of students get placed in my course. The highest package offered is 21 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. The average package is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Wipro, TCS, Cognizant, and Western Digital. Very less students got off-campus internships like 40% in companies like Tata and HCL.
Infrastructure: Facilities offered are really nice. We also have a library, Wi-Fi, classrooms, and labs. We have two hostel buildings for each boys and girls. Hostels are huge but the hostel food is average but not so good. The hostel provides Wi-Fi. We also have an indoor stadium for sports.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. Their teaching is good but sometimes they lack understanding. The course curriculum is relevant but they need to focus more on knowledge and skills. Semester exams are a bit hard and sometimes questions are twisted but it is okay. The pass percentage is 35%. They have good knowledge. There are good teachers. Some teachers have personality issues but overall, teaching is good.
Other: Because of the high job facilities and better life settlement, I chose this course. The best thing about the course is to have an IT life. Things that should be focused on skills that a student should develop to get ready for industry life.

I love this college. It is better than my expectations.
Placements: About 70% of our students got placed somewhere with a good salary. The highest package is 24 LPA and the average package is 4 LPA. Companies like Flipkart, Wipro, and Infosys visit our college for placements. Our College conducts internships and more than 70% of students got internships from the CSE branch. 30% of the core branch students got internships in many big companies .
Infrastructure: I am a CSE Student and I love the infrastructure of NIST. The Wi-Fi system is good. Labs are good. We have a huge library on our campus. Mess food is more than expected. We also have a canteen, and we can get quality food at a low price. We have also an indoor stadium on our campus, A big cricket ground is available outside the campus.
Faculty: Faculty members are too good. They are more than friends. Many faculty members come to NIST after doing PhD from IITs and NITs. Their teaching qualities are also good. Courses are also industry-friendly. For Exam POV, I will give it 5 stars. 3 types of Exams are conducted here that are internals, mid-semester, and end-semester exams.
Other: I am a CSE student and I love this branch, so I chose it. Sankalp, foundation day, and many club events are conducted here.
